Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work A Still Life With A Shell, Sculpted Jars And A Flower, All On A Partly Draped Stone Ledge; A Still Life With Two Shells, Sculpted Jars And Flowers, All On A Partly Draped Stone Ledge by Meiffren Conte was auctioned at Sothebys in London in October 2008, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of GBP 15,000.00 – 20,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Meiffren Conte - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work A silver incense burner and sideboard dish, a silver-gilt ewer and vase with nautilus shells, a sabre and a jewelry box on a ledge draped with a velvet curtain, which sold at auction in May 2012 for GBP 27,500.00 (€ 34,263.79).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit A Still Life With A Shell, Sculpted Jars And A Flower, All On A Partly Draped Stone Ledge; A Still Life With Two Shells, Sculpted Jars And Flowers, All On A Partly Draped Stone Ledge von Meiffren Conte im Oktober 2008 bei Sothebys in London versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 15.000,00 – 20.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für GBP 11.250,00 (€ 14.339,71) den Besitzer. Für andere Arbeiten von Meiffren Conte mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit A silver incense burner and sideboard dish, a silver-gilt ewer and vase with nautilus shells, a sabre and a jewelry box on a ledge draped with a velvet curtain beobachtet, die im Mai 2012 für GBP 27.500,00 (€ 34.263,79) verste
